Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Yes it was most unfortunate - I had a series of no throws... all no throws in fact.

Sounds like my pole vault debut at our last match. The official told me it was the quickest debut and retirement he'd ever seen :-O

Pole vault very impressive. I think it was that and the high jump that were the only events I didnt have a go at last season.

Hahaha Steve - I was thinking about you when I was deciding what events to go for!! Chris suggested the 400m, 800m, and 3k and asked whether I would be interested in running the 2x400m - with the men!!! NO way!!

So I am sticking to 100m and 200m. Not worried about blocks anymore.

Oh and I would love to see me throwing the hammer!! haha :-)

Yes Im going to enter on the day.

15 secs - I can do that, can I enter?

I did my fastest 400m at a Rosen meet last year - 69 secs. Only thing was everyone else was doing sub 60secs. Felt rather lonely coming down the home straight.
